a. MTB
b. SHS
2. Programs (IPEd, Muslim Ed, SPED, Special

11. CONTEXTUALIZATION
The K to 12 curriculum framework highlights the
fundamental importance of context in shaping
the curriculum, and consequently, the teaching-
learning process
Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013 (RA 10533), Sec. 5
The DepEd shall adhere to the following standards and
principles in
developing the enhanced basic education curriculum:
(d)... contextualized and global
DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION - REGIONAL OFFICE NO. VIII
12. CONTEXTUALIZATION
Flexibility of the K to 12 curriculum allows for
curriculum enhancement in relation to the diverse
background of learners
Enhanced Basic Education Act of 2013 (RA 10533), Sec. 5
The DepEd shall adhere to the following standards and principles in
developing the enhanced basic education curriculum:
h)... flexible enough to enable and allow schools to
localize, indigenize and enhance the same based on
their respective educational and social contexts. The
production and development of locally produced
teaching materials shall be encouraged and approval of
these materials shall devolve to the regional and
division education units.
DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION - REGIONAL OFFICE NO. VIII
14. Key Concepts
Contextualization refers to the educational process of
relating the curriculum to a particular setting, situation or
area of application to make the competencies relevant,
meaningful, and useful to all learners.
The degree of contextualization may be described and
distinguished into the following:
1. Localization
2. Indigenization
DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION - REGIONAL OFFICE NO. VIII
15. Key Concepts
The degree of contextualization may be
described and distinguished into the
following:
1. Localization refers to the process of
relating learning content specified in the
curriculum to local information and materials
in the learners'
community.
DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION - REGIONAL OFFICE NO. VIII
17. Examples of Localization
1. Examples used in lessons start with those in the locality
2. Names, situations, setting needed to give context to
test questions or problem-solving exercises are those
of the immediate community
3. Local materials are used as often as possible in making
instructional materials
4. Local stories are used in the language learning areas
5. Translating a story written in another language to the
language of one's learners for use in MTB-MLE
DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION - REGIONAL OFFICE NO. VIII
18. Key Concepts
The degree of contextualization may be described and distinguished into the
following:
1. Localization refers to the process of relating learning content specified in
the curriculum to local information and materials in the learners'
community.
2. Indigenization refers to the process of enhancing curriculum
competencies, education resources, and teaching-learning processes in
relation to the bio-geographical, historical, and socio-cultural context of
the learners' community. Indigenization may also involve the
enhancement of the curriculum framework, curriculum design, and
learning standards of subject areas, guided by the standards and
principles adhered to by the national curriculum.
DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION - REGIONAL OFFICE NO. VIII
20. Examples of Localization and Indigenization
of the Curriculum
Curriculum design; NKCG
LOCALIZATION
• Use local information and materials while maintaining the
suggested structure, themes and activities in the NKCG
INDIGENIZATION
• enhancing the themes and activities of the NKCG
by modifying, reorganizing, or highlighting certain
aspects in relation to the community context(e.g.,
socio-economic realities, cultural practices, local
knowledge)
21. Examples of Localization and Indigenization
of the Curriculum
Competency;
Visualize the ratio of two given numbers (M5NS-IIh-22)
LOCALIZATION
• Use easily observable examples of ratio in the community
— One jeep, 4 wheels; one kariton, 2 wheels, one tricycle, 3 wheels
(depending on what is most common in the community)
INDIGENIZATION
• community activities or cultural practices that inherently
use the concept of ratio
— Ex. Bringing products to the market entails using a carabao
carrying sacks (one carabao is to x sacks)
22. Examples of Localization and Indigenization of the
Curriculum
Competency;
Identify star patterns that can be seen at particular times of the
year (S5FE-IVi-j-1)
LOCALIZATION
• use the community's name for prominent stars, if they have,
while retaining the use of the Greek constellations and its
background in discussing star patterns
INDIGENIZATION
• Discuss the community's own calendar of star patterns and its
background before discussing the Greek constellations

25. Major curriculum thrust of
K to 12: CONTEXTUALIZATION
• Localization and indigenization are
degrees or levels of doing
contextualization
• When we localize, we do not
necessarily indigenize
• When we indigenize, we localize

40. Classroom Assessment is an integral part of curriculum
implementation. It allows the teachers to track and measure
learner’s progress and to adjust instruction accordingly.
Classroom Assessment is an ongoing progress of
identifying, gathering, organizing, and interpreting
quantitative and qualitative information about what learners
know and can do.
41. Two Types of Classroom Assessment
a. Formative Assessment
Assessment for Learning
Assessment as Learning
b. Summative Assessment
Assessment of Learning
42. WHAT IS ASSESSED IN THE CLASSROOM?
a. Content Standards – identify and set the essential
knowledge and understanding that should be learned.
b. Performance Standard – describe the abilities and
skills that learners are expected to demonstrate in
relation to the content standards and integration of 21st
century skills.
43. c. Learning Competencies – Knowledge,
Understanding, Skills and Attitudes that
students need to demonstrate in every
lesson and/or learning activity.
d. Concept Development – the learning
standards in the curriculum reflect
progressions of concept development.
45. Adapted Cognitive Process
Dimensions
Cognitive Process Dimensions Descriptions
Remembering The learner can recall information and
retrieve relevant knowledge from long-
term memory: identify, retrieve,
recognize, duplicate, list, memorize,
repeat, reproduce
Understanding The learner can construct meaning from
oral, written, and graphic messages:
interpret, exemplify, classify,
summarize, infer, compare, explain,
paraphrase, discuss
46. Applying The learner can use information to
undertake a procedure in familiar
situations or in a new way: execute,
implement, demonstrate, dramatize,
interpret, solve, use, illustrate,
convert, discover
Analyzing The learner can distinguish between
parts and determine how they relate to
one another, and to the overall
structure and purpose: differentiate,
distinguish, compare, contrast,
organize, outline, attribute,
deconstruct
47. Evaluating The learner can make judgements and
justify decisions: coordinate,
measure, detect, defend, judge,
argue, debate, critique, appraise,
evaluate
Creating The learner can put elements together
to form a functional whole, create a
new product or point of view:
generate, hypothesize, plan, design,
develop, produce, construct,
formulate, assemble, design, devise
48. To align the assessment process
with the K to 12 curriculum, the
adapted Cognitive Process Dimensions
may be used as guide not only in
lesson development but also in the
formulation of assessment tasks and
activities.
50. What is a Table of Specifications?
The Table of Specifications is a blueprint
for the preparation of an exam. It serves as the
“map” or guide to assigning the appropriate
number of items to topics included in the course
or subject.
51. A Table of Specifications is a
two-way chart which describes the
topics to be covered by a test and
the number of items or points
which will be associated with each
topic.
52. A Table of Specifications provides the teacher
with evidence that a test has content validity,
that it covers what should be covered.
A Table of Specifications helps to ensure that
there is a match between what is taught and
what is tested.

The best curricula is contextualized by those
implementing it.
It is now up to us to ensure that this
enhanced curriculum truly transforms our
schools and communities.
With the best of our abilities, let us do what
we can for the Filipino learner.
